GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Keiai Maple to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. WIN AWARD (6) is putting together some strong results. Finished second at this track two starts back then scored by a nose last time out over 1300m at this track. Taichi Nagamori scored on him last time and retains the ride. Big chance again. APOLLO BIBI (7) fought on for second last start over 1400m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row since a win at this venue. Major player. DANON MAKALU (5) will find this much easier than the resuming effort at Tokyo Dirt. Has a solid second up record. Finds a suitable contest and could get the job done. FEARLESS HEART (1) settled well back at this course and distance last time but did find the line nicely to finish fifth. Solid top-three prospects.
